Nudder Hot & Muggy morning in DC.
The Beast got the nod over the G-G today due to the t-storms due to roll in around noon and last until later this evening.
(Got wet going home last evening)

The coffee is tasting might good (That old sock on the filter basket is now "aged")
The Donut delivery guy must be tied up in traffic.

Y'all enjoy "Hump" day, and stay safe.

Mornin' all,

Houston Mostly Cloudy 78°F (26°C) Cooler here than a lot of places, NWDave that is HOT up there where if it hits 80 it is a heat wave.
Hat,thanks for starting the good CIN load that launcher and send a donut down this way, No rain in the forcast. Shoot a couple of sprinkly donuts to Shovehead.

Chaikwa, I am going in to have the eye infection fix this morning, and the wife is going to see her doctor a couple of blocks a way. One trip will do it all this morning. I will give a report this afternoon.

DD you got 3 nights sleep in one night, so you can stay up all night and get stuff done.

Still dark outside, no spider report yet.

Have a good un and be safe out there.

You all have a great day and I will talk to you all in a bit. Thanks for listening.Cin

You know, if I was a suspicious person, I'd think there was a conspiracy going on here. But, since you all like me, I guess it's just my buddies giving me a hard time because they're jealous.(or mentally handicapped, I'm not sure which)

Hey, coffee is not bad considering SOMEONE did not have the foo foo hot and ready. BBBOOOOOOO

Hey Dave, don't know if you caught it, but I was almost to your lovely town this spring. We were going to go see the tulip fields - - everyone said they were out in all their glory about that time, but we cut west to the bridge over to Whidbey. Also went up to San Juan for a few days - - stayed at Roche Harbor - - pretty little place. Kinda pricey!!!

Another gorgeous day in Paradise - - not too hot, a little humid, blue skies and puffy clouds, a shower or two drifting around here and there. Now, guess I better go do something constructive - - like go swimming and drink coffee and read a book out in the lanai. See ya'll later - - got things to do LOL

Imagine the long s-l-u-r-p-i-n-g sound of coffee being consumed by an ol' phart firing up the computer, looking for the long promised donuts, picking funny looking sparklies outa the brew - who needs lessons on how NOT to stir or dip donuts into the coffee mess. Do it in your own cup, not mine... thank you very much.
On board now, geeze, youse' guys get up awful early. Don't think you're going to hear a peep outta me. I have to leave for work too soon....still trying help produce diesel and other similar products in the oil Refinery of latest job. This time it's the Shell Oil Refinery, in Anacortes Washington for those who know this region.

I'd say good luck on the inspection but for some unknown reason, just in the few days I've "known" you, I don't think you rely on luck to pass the dog and pony shows.

All of you keep the faith, say a prayer for our brothers and sisters in arms who are standing in harms way.

Back in about 12 hours.......

Ding, Ding, NWDave, Departing....

Morning, server is finally working over in OZ. Ready for some coffee now. For Inspectionhat, those aren't my scuff marks on the floor, I took my shoes off. Wish I was working yesterday and had today off, man it's nice out there. Bob comes back on line and the sweltering heat mysteriously disappears. Try to get some help from a guy in January...

Wet scooter ride and stuff

Took the scooter to the shop yesterday for it's first 4000 mile check up (at 5400 miles). PHEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWEEEEEE, did it rain. As Forrest would say, "big ole fat rain", sideways rain, rain coming up from the bottom, and so on. Oh well, into each ride, a little rain must fall I guess. And then there was the "sting ging" rain too.

Finally chewed through that galatenous blob in the coffee cup a while back with a hack saw. Ain't no way I was drinkin that stuff. EEeeWWEeeEWWEee ( man we gotta find someone that knows how to make coffee that won't eat it's way through the pot ).

Nice of you. I had a hatch recruit that would have got you, though...

Did good today. We are the honor platoon, and won the Bn Commanders inspection, SgtMaj's inspection, company high shooter, company honor man, inital and final drill. Not too shabby for my first cycle back, and my first one as a Senior. Had a great pair of Drill instructors working for me, so it made it a little easier.

Well, back to work.
Later...
